On this week’s episode of The Waves, host of Slate’s ICYMI podcast
Rachelle Hampton is joined by Vulture’s Rebecca Alter to talk all
about those cheesy holiday movies we can’t escape this time of
year. They dig into what makes a Hallmark Holiday Movie (inns and
men who have probably been to therapy are a must), how the movies
have evolved over the years and whether their attempts at diversity
are just forcing other cultures to conform to their model. Plus,
all the holiday vibes.   In Slate Plus: Rebecca talks
about her time on a Hallmark movie set, which she wrote about for
Vulture.  Recommendations: Rachelle: The Holiday Calendar on
Netflix and Lifetime’s The Spirit of Christmas. Rebecca: Dolly
Parton’s Christmas on the Square on Netflix and Showtime’s Matt
Rogers: Have You Heard of Christmas.   Podcast production by
Cheyna Roth with editorial oversight by Daisy Rosario and Alicia
Montgomery. Send your comments and recommendations on what to cover
